I think I've set up DNS correctly, but when I go to the registrar for my hosted domain broadey.co.uk I get an unhelpful message "error setting nameservers" when I try to set them to ns1.breit.co.uk and ns2.breit.co.uk (breit.co.uk is my CWP hosting domain name, which is on a PlanetHippo.co.uk VPS) at the registrar for that domain (which is 123-reg.co.uk).

If I do "nslookup broadey.co.uk ns1.breit.co.uk" then I get the right answer, so I must be doing something right.

The tutorials and other info are really poor. The examples talk about setting your CWP nameservers to "n1.centos-webpanel.com" but that seems plain wrong - surely you need to be using the domain name of your CWP host (which in my case is webpanel.breit.co.uk, though I've added A records for ns1 and ns2 at the registrar for that domain).

I used CWP -> DNS Functions -> Edit Nameservers IPs to set them to ns1.breit.co.uk and ns2.breit.co.uk using the public IP address of my VPS. In CWP -> DNS Function -> List DNS Zones this gives me zones for ns1.breit.co.uk and ns2.breit.co.uk.

I then created an account for broadey.co.uk. This gives me a zone file broadey.co.uk.db containing

ns1 14400 IN A 78.129.139.89ns2 14400 IN A 78.129.139.89and restarted BIND. None of this has helped. I still can't set ns1.breit.co.uk as the nameserver for broadey.co.uk at the registrar 123-reg.co.uk. What is it that the registrar is looking for that I am failing to provide?

- Your Main Domain or Subdomains need's to have A record to this server IPs

How to set A Records for Name Servers1. Create new account on the server with domain name which you will use for nameservers (example: test.com)2. Edit DNS zone for this domain go to DNS Functions --> List DNS Zones and click on your domain3. Add records for your nameservers at end of the file:

ns1 14400 IN A NS1_SERVER IPns2 14400 IN A NS2_SERVER IP

example:

ns1 14400 IN A 120.130.110.122ns2 14400 IN A 120.130.110.123this will create nameservers: ns1.test.com and ns2.test.com
